Cleveland Height super is the new Zelman

By selliott | Wednesday, October 15, 2008, 01:59 PM

Deborah Delisle, superintendent of Cleveland Heights schools since 2004, is the new state superintendent of instruction for Ohio, replacing Susan Tave Zelman.

I don’t know much about Delisle, but she seems like an unusual choice. It does not appear she has been a superintendent very long, although I do not have her resume. And she is from a low performing urban district, which is quite unusual for a state superintendent.

Perhaps that will be good for urban districts? Will she better understand the issues facing urban schools? That remains to be seen.
